A GTA Online stuntman successfully drove up the sides of multiple Los Santos skyscrapers in a crazy video this week. Driving a purple Scramjet, the player perfectly timed a series of jumps and rocket boosts to ultimately land atop a tall, yellow construction crane at the request of his followers. The clip gained a ton of traction on Reddit as GTA fans applauded the stuntman's skills.
Rockstar Games' GTA Online allows players to explore the open-world environment of San Andreas, a fictional state based on Southern California. Up to 30 people can participate in cooperative or competitive matches within GTA Online. The game's freedom has led many players to virtually take on complicated and dangerous stunts using a wide range of vehicles, including motorbikes. Some GTA Online stuntmen aim to break records with insanely high dives and jumps, while others just want to see how far they can push the limits of their vehicles.
Reddit user TheRealMurda10k has become a popular GTA Online stuntman. His page is filled with stunt videos based on fan requests. His latest video on Tuesday was particularly popular, as the stuntman shot his Scramjet into the sky and glided across the sides of the tallest buildings in the city of Los Santos. TheRealMurda10k's rocket boosts appeared to be carefully timed, as he allowed the Scramjet to fall a few feet before going turbo once more and landing on the sides of skyscrapers. The stuntman drove higher and higher up four buildings before using one last rocket boost to flip himself into a yellow crane. Finally, the player landed nose-down on the crane's narrow deck.
It's clear why TheRealMurda10k's latest stunt became so popular among GTA Online Reddit users -- those jumps must have taken some serious practice. Eagle-eyed viewer FireTiger1050 noticed that the grass at the beginning of the video had quite a few dirt marks just before the stuntman took off. In other words, it looked as though the stunt took multiple tries to get right, and understandably so.
There are quite a few seasoned GTA Online stuntmen out there, but it doesn't always take hours of practice to pull off a crazy stunt. Just last month, one lucky player performed a 360-degree rocket dodge in a tank by accident. Grab your favorite GTA Online vehicle and see what stunts you can pull, accidentally or otherwise; after all, it's far safer to pull stunts virtually than in real life, so go crazy.
